The Commissioner of Police in Lagos, Mr. Fatai Owoseni, who confirmed the discovery to newsmen, said the hideout was discovered during the raids of creeks at Isawo in Ikorodu area of Lagos.
Owoseni said the hideout was discovered on Thursday by a team of Ikorodu Special Anti-Robbery Squad and Volunteer Police led by Superintendent Godfrey Soriweiu. He noted that the success came two weeks after the discovery of a similar hideout in Isawo.
“In continuation of its onslaught against militants operating from the creeks, Lagos State Police Command early Thursday morning raided and recovered seven Army and Police bullet-proof vests.
“The teams also recovered eight ballistic helmets and nine life jackets from a new kidnapper’s hideout in Lagos.
“Other items recovered by the team include a speed boat belonging to the suspected kidnappers,” he said.
